Description
Asian Art. China. An elegant statuette of a celestial dancer with long sleeves. Translucent light honey-coloured nephrite jade, a rare quality. Antique patina, with mineral and iron deposits. L. 12.5 cm. The swaying hips suggest the movement of dance. One arm raised above the head, the other draped across the waist, support the very long sleeves that were in vogue at the Han court. Provenance: former Chinese collection. In the Han style. Possibly ancient. Age not guaranteed.
